Americans or rabid groupies of American fighters boasting about American fighters who've lived in the US their entire lives doing equal or better TV views than foreigners (especially ones who come from countries most Americans have never heard of) who have only been in the US or shown on US TV for a handful of years is comical. It's almost like gloating about your wife loving your more than some dude on the street.

1. Golovkin is from Kazakhstan, a country most Americans couldn't locate on a map if you gave them 100 attempts even though it's the ninth largest country in the world.

2. He only arrived in the US what is it like a little over 3.5 years ago now?

3. He speaks English about as well as a four year old American child.

4. But he's selling out venues on the East coast and the West coast, breaking records in the process.

5. He's got endorsement deals with Apple, Nike (and what's the other one?).

6. His fights are broadcast in over 120 countries world wide, not just in the US or occasionally in a couple of other countries. 120 countries and at worst still over 100.

Now let's compare that with Andre Ward.

1. Ward is American and has lived in America his whole life.

2. He is America's only Olympic gold medalist is something like 20 years IIRC.

3. He speaks fluent English and is a Christian (granted a faux one).

4. All his fights have been broadcast on US television since he turned pro. Even his pro debut was shown on HBO.

5. He had an 8 year head start on Golovkin on US TV. 8 years not 8 months!

6. None of his fights have ever been PPV, Golovkin pipped him to that too, in Ward's home country, and against a Canadian.

And yet Ward can't even sell out his own hometown and the venues are never full at his fights despite his promotional team giving away god knows how many complimentary tickets.

Some dude who lives about 5-10 miles away from Oakland (he's a regular caller on a boxing radio show) called into a radio show I was listening to and said Ward couldn't even get 100 people to turn up for an autograph signing session when he visited his town.

Doesn't hide the fact that GGG DUCKED Ward! :deal

Funny how when Mayweather breaks PPV (which is the only numbers that matter) records and they are brought up, the GGG fans dismiss it. Now these same fans argue for viewership. Bunch of hypocrites. GGG did what 97K in PPV? People will watch GGG for free as a side show but for a main show where they have to shell out from their wallet, nobody will pay for PPV at discounted rates. JUST THE FACTS.
